Sorry, but you have a what is now considered obsolete iPhone from 11 years ago, which is frozen forever on iOS 12 and is completely incapable of being updated further. Many many apps are no longer supported on such an out of date iOS. If you need or want to use these apps, it's time to retire your now ancient iPhone and buy a new one.
